Workman loses life on Hertfordshire St Albans building project

It has been reported by the Herts Advertiserthat 26-year-old Hertfordshire man has died after a wall collapsed in St Albans.

Emergency services were called to Mile House Lane (30 Jan) where the workman, from Welwyn Garden City, died at the scene where he is believed to have been carrying out building work.

A passer-by said yesterday he thought builders had been working at the house in question since before Christmas. EEAST spokesman Gary Sanderson said: “First and foremost our thoughts are with the man’s family at this tragic time.”

His next of kin have been informed and police are investigating the incident with the HSE.
